No cause for concern says Health Minister as countries in Europe suspend AstraZeneca Vaccine

Health Minister Dr. Irving Mc Intyre says there is no scientific evidence to support a decision by some European countries to suspend the use of the AstraZeneca Vaccine.

Dominica is this month administering the vaccine to citizens following a gift of 70 000 doses received from India.

Speaking at a Cabinet press briefing on Wednesday, the Health Minister ascribed the decision to suspend, to vaccine diplomacy and geo-politics at play in these countries.
